This type of external injury treatnt didn’t require Li He to expend much effort, but when the rebar was extracted, Fei Yiyi was in so much pain she almost passed out. In her haziness, she still stared at Lu Jin intently, hoping to glean a hint of sympathy from his eyes.
Yet, until her wound was healed, she didn’t receive even a glance from Lu Jin.
Li He withdrew his superpower and simply stated "It’s done," then, along with Jianxiong, quickly followed Su Mo’s lead.
"Lu Jin..." Fei Yiyi staggered to her feet, tearfully looking at Lu Jin.
Often at tis like this, Lu Jin would realize that the person he had saved on a whim was nothing like Su Mo at all; she would never cry in front of him.
With that thought, Lu Jin lowered his gaze and walked away without uttering a word.
Feeling abandoned, Fei Yiyi panicked inside. She quickly got up from the ground and followed.
In this area of ruin, Li Qian had actually found an eyeglass store with many pairs still displayed on the counters, though shattered.
Since his last pair had been destroyed, he hadn’t worn any. He went inside and after trying on several pairs, finally put on a pair with black fras on his nose. When Su Mo saw him, her first words were "a refined scoundrel."
Zhao Changsheng deeply agreed.
They ventured into a clothing store next, where the clothes had not yet been looted. Su Mo imdiately directed Lu Chen to pack up all the clothes to bring back and distribute.
Li Qian stood at the entrance to the second floor, where a Level 3 zombie rushed down only to be quickly killed by him.
It was a very dull journey, but Su Mo still enjoyed browsing around.
Li Qian’s spiritual power continued to radiate outward, so when he sensed dozens of vehicles encroaching on their territory, the warm smile originally at the corner of his mouth faded slightly, "Quite a few people are coming this way."
Su Mo, treated like a protected animal, was imdiately picked up by Lu Chen and placed in the car. He said in a deep voice, "Eat the pumpkin and wait here for ."
Su Mo knew this was no joke. She obediently ate the pumpkin, activated the protective shield, and stayed calmly in the car.
This essential road leading to P city saw a slow procession of more than a dozen battle vehicles painted in black.
Atop each vehicle flew a small flag of Mi Country.
Seeing that flag, Su Mo knew trouble was brewing, and her expression darkened. Could it be that these people still weren’t willing to leave her alone?
The vehicles didn’t seem to care about the people on the roadside. The burly driver rely glanced at them before driving past.
They all failed to notice Su Mo sitting in the car.
From the car window, Su Mo eyed the retreating vehicles, laden with one after another full of supplies, unsure of their content.
Once the vehicles had gone far, Lu Chen got into the car with a stern expression, "Let’s go back."
Knowing that the refugee camp might be in trouble, Su Mo also nodded, "Let’s hurry. Who knows what these people are up to this ti."
When they returned to the refugee camp, those vehicles were blocked outside and did not enter.
After Lu Chen’s vehicle entered, he was called away by Rong Bai. Su Mo went to listen to the gossip, and it beca clear that those vehicles had co for her again.
In the eyes of those foreigners, she was now a coveted prize with imnse research value.
Rong Bai said they were prepared to exchange three trucks of new developntal dicine for soone from their base.
Of course, with that fleeting look from Rong Bai, Su Mo knew he was talking about her.
"Is it that so-called Evolution Potion again?" Su Mo asked, sowhat disdainfully, but Rong Bai shook his head, "It’s not."
"They say it can raise the body temperature to prevent freezing to death in the Ice Age and that there are no side effects."
This ti, Su Mo was truly surprised. Such a thing indeed sounded more reliable than the Evolution Potion, "Does it have the sa effect on ordinary people?"
Rong Bai didn’t deny it but simply said, "I refused. The researchers have been working on cold-resistant dicine lately, and I’ve already sent Jin Han with a team of engineers to Luohe. We are not in a hurry for these."
Rong Bai was absolutely right, yet Lu Chen, out of worry for Su Mo’s safety, had directly assigned two Level 5 superpower users as bodyguards at the hotel room door.
If those people truly intended to take Su Mo away and couldn’t do so peacefully, they would inevitably resort to force.
Now that Su Mo had a child again, she knew this was absolutely not the ti to leave the refugee camp.
In the past few days, Lu Chen had people closely monitoring the movents at the entrance of the refugee camp. Those vehicles had stopped far away and taken up residence in a deserted industrial building outside, with no one coming out.
Inside the refugee camp, Lu Youwei, not seen for a long ti, reached out to Fang Ya again. When the woman saw him, she was unkempt and gnawing on coarse wheat buns. The clean appearance of Lu Youwei sparked intense anger in her. She grabbed a thermos from the ground and threw it at him, "What are you doing here! Get lost!!"
Lu Youwei dodged the thermos, grabbed Fang Ya by the wrist, and whispered a few words in her ear.
The initially agitated Fang Ya gradually cald down, "No, I can’t let down my son again."
"We can go back to the old days, with inexhaustible food and clothes. My Fang Ya, have you made up your mind?"
Starved for many days, Fang Ya was abandoned by everyone. It was not until Lu Youwei extended an olive branch to her again that her heart was uncontrollably moved.
Inexhaustible delicious food and clothes – that was the life she was used to, but Fang Ya still hesitated enormously.
"Lu Chen has long abandoned you, and you’re still thinking about that son? Let tell you, you only get one chance."
Unable to restrain himself, Lu Youwei snatched up Fang Ya’s hair. His face, aged and beyond its pri, no longer possessed the dignity of the past, only the pettiness typical of a parvenu.
In recent days, he had been plastering walls to get food and had naturally heard about the dicine those foreigners brought back.
As long as he could assist them, he would receive the dicine, as well as a large amount of Crystal Stones and food.
In the end, Fang Ya made up her mind, "I want half of the compensation. I know where Su Mo stays, and I can get her to co."
Lu Youwei nodded in agreent. After he left, seven or eight superpower users gathered around. They huddled together and whispered. Soon after, a plan unfolded.
Within a few days, while Su Mo was chatting with Bai Shitong and others in the Momo Restaurant, she received a note passed over by a superpower user.
It was about Lu Chen’s father.
Fang Ya actually claid... Lu Cang was not dead; she begged Su Mo to co over and give her a chance for an explanation, knowing full well that Lu Chen would never et his mother.
Su Mo crumpled the note into a ball, furrowed her brow, and felt that sothing was amiss.
